Scanning Is Not Performed

Check the following if the scanner does not scan an image even though the 
scanning operation is performed:

• Is the scanner correctly connected to the computer?
• Has the scanner driver been installed?
• Has the application software been installed correctly? Has the application 

software been set up correctly?

• Is there a problem in the PC system?

IMPORTANT

• If documents are not scanned normally even if the scanner setup is OK, a 

probable cause is that the scanner driver or application software is not 
running correctly. Re-install the scanner driver or application software.

• When system errors result in the scanner not functioning at all, turn OFF the 

scanner and wait at least ten seconds before turning it ON again. If the error 
continues to occur, restart the computer.

• When scanning continues, make sure that the last document scanned was 

scanned correctly.

Documents Are Not Fed Correctly

The following are possible causes when documents are not fed correctly.

Problem

Static electricity, etc., is causing the pages of the document 
to stick together, and they cannot be separated correctly by 
the scanner.

Solution

Before you place your document, thoroughly fan the stack of 
papers. (See “Placing a Documents,” on p. 23.)

Problem

An attempt was made to scan a size, thickness, or type of 
paper that cannot be scanned by the scanner.

Solution

Check the document size, thickness, and paper type. (See 
“Documents,” on p. 20.)

Problem

The rollers inside the scanner are dirty or worn.

Solution

Refer to p. 59 and clean the rollers. If the rollers are worn, then 
they need to be replaced. Contact your local authorized Canon 
dealer or service representative to purchase a roller replacement 
kit.

For details on how to clear jammed paper, see “Clearing a Paper Jam,” on 
p. 42.
